"God is not the author of evil but God created an environment where evil, at least amongst intelligent races who are aware of their own mortality, will be likely and inevitable. But God has given the antidote to evil, a powerful antidote. It is placed within you in the power and presence of Knowledge, a deeper mind within you." [2]
